I've played with the new version (RC 2.0) some and here are a few things I've noticed.

It won't try prepending # if you fail to type it in a join command, it just says no such channel. The older version did this and while it is just a convenience, it was just that, convenient.

When I close a query window with a bunch of other channels and queries open the focus isn't consistently on the last channel I had in focus. When some one queries me likewise it grabs focus by default so what I'm typing may end up going to them not the originally intended recipient.

When there is a long list of channels in someone's whois and it wraps lines, clicking on one at the very end before the line wraps or the beginning of the wrapped line attempts to open a channel with the names of both the channels mashed together not the name you actually clicked on.

DCC file transfers haven't been working for me. When someone sends a file I get a part of it then it stops it seems like.

I like the new version a lot but I've had a few crashes and sometimes stack trace popups like the one below. Hope all this information is helpful to you in improving things.

The stack trace below if it helps you:
